Product Information
One of the best known musicians of his time, an author of the famous heroic polonaise Let the Thunder of Victory Sound, which became the anthem of the Russian Empire, Osip Antonovich Kozlovsky acquired glory and honour in his lifetime. His works were extensively performed and republished.
The composer was born in 1757 into a noble Polish family. He began to study music in Warsaw at St. John's Cathedral where he was a choirboy and played the organ. In the years of the Russo-Turkish War, Osip Kozlovsky joined the Russian army and became known to Prince Grigory Potemkin who was impressed with the talent of the young officer and took him to St. Petersburg and introduced to the court of Catherine II. The composer won fame thanks to his involvement in the grand rallies arranged by Potemkin in honour of the capture of the fortress of Izmail in 1791. The most famous court musicians, artists, architects and poets of the time were invited to arrange the festivities. During a concert at Tauride Palace, five choir pieces and variations of Russian, Moldavian and Ukrainian dances written by Kozlovsky for the occasion were performed. These compositions, especially the celebrated Let the Thunder of Victory Sound to the verses of Gavrila Derzhavin, immediately won fame to the composer and put him in a row of popular and recognized metropolitan musicians. His dances sounded at magnificent balls, and his romances were played in the music parlours. Allegedly, Kozlovsky created a new genre of Russian song – romance to the words of Russian authors.
After Potemkin's death, Kozlovsky's music career was closely connected with the imperial theatre where he became a 'music inspector' in 1799 and then a 'music director' in 1803. Sixteen years of the composer's career were spent there until he retired. While serving in the theatre, he composed music to the tragedies by Ozerov, Shakhovskoy, Knyazhnin, and Gruzintsev. Being in charge of music repertoire of the theatres and undertaking theatrical performances and concerts, the composer also directed an orchestra and a school of the imperial theatres where he facilitated the development of instrumental classes. In 1815, Kozlovsky became an honorary member of the St. Petersburg Philharmonic Society.
At the end of his life, Kozlovsky was far gone. In 1822, he visited Poland accompanied by his daughter, a well-known harpist, but then returned to St. Petersburg, which had become his hometown, where he died in 1831.
Osip Kozlovsky was arguably an author of the first requiem in Russia. Missa pro defunctis in E flat minor is one of the most significant works in Kozlovsky's legacy. The requiem for the death of Stanisław August Poniatowski, the King of Poland, written for four voices and orchestra was performed for the first time at the Catholic Church of St. Catherine on 25 February, 1798, in St. Petersburg. Some of the best foreign artists of the time took part in the performance directed by the author himself. With this majestic mass for the dead, the composer paid the last honours to the monarch who died in a foreign land.
On this album the Requiem Mass is performed by Galina Simkina (soprano), Lidiya Tchernykh (soprano), Valentina Panina (mezzo-soprano), Konstantin Lisovsky (tenor), Vladimir Motorin (bass), and the State Moscow Choir, the Moscow Choir of Teachers and the State Symphony Orchestra of the Ministry of Culture of the USSR directed by Vladimir Yesipov.
